Breeze, sing a happy song

              C                      C   
This heart of mine is singing right along

                     C    C7                    F     Fm
Don't know where I'm going, don't know where it ends

Till the grass is greener, beyond the bend

I haven't got a care

I'm just on my way to anywhere

Pocketful of nothing, nothing I can spend

Hope the grass is greener, beyond the bend   (break)

Somebody waiting who's right for me
[Verse]
   C              C
So I got to move around

C                            C
And I know I've got to cover ground

                C      C7              F     Fm
Oh, the trip is shorter when you got a friend

Gotta find that rainbow beyond the bend   (break)

Somebody waiting who's right for me
